10/10 Excellent
"We had a good stay. Can't beat the location, and the staff was friendly and helpful. Had an alarm go off at 8:30 am on Friday. Had to go out of the hotel, and it was rather disorganized, tough to figure out what was going on or what should do, so there were lots of people milling about. I think they might want to look at their fire drill plans. Also, our coffee make was missing the filter basket. Wrote the maids a heads up, but if. you're into hotel room coffee, check!"

"Very nice hotel in the city, very upscale and fancy! Only downside is after paying 200+ a night you still have to pay for the amenities in the room! Full bar that I didn’t want to use so we would be charged."
